Finally A Great Web Design Firm

Thank the web gods for SureFire Web Services. Besides the fact they actually called me back and showed sincere concern for my business they turned my baby tutors website from a flop into a successful site. My clients find it extremely easy to navigate and I am getting more traffic than ever.

I thought a website was a website and that was it. The designers at SureFire helped me reevaluate my ideas for baby tutors and developed them into a fabulous final product. They werent lying about web presence. They developed and encompassed all of my ideas into a site that represents me and my product. I actually feel when you see my baby tutors site you are looking at me and I am proud.

I found it hard to trust a web designer after my first encounter with one. I learned I was paying for services I never received and they used slang and jargon above my comprehension. SureFire helped me learn by providing a learning center for the computer challenged. I never heard of Web 2.0. I am extremely happy for my clients now they can access and use my site with incredible ease. I lost so much money because my clients loved the product but couldnt find the checkout. Now when I surf the web I see things I would never have noticed. I suggest for anyone reading this to read their learning center. It is time well spent.

When I signed up with SureFire I picked the one year plan with maintenance. They offer a back office for their clients to update their sites themselves but that wasnt for me. Surefire calls me periodically to ask if I have anything new I would like to add to the site. They actually maintain and update my site like they say. Not like my first designer.

I recommend everyone to give SureFire Web Services a well deserved chance. Their customer service and design knowledge is extensive and informative. They will work with you until you are perfectly satisfied with your site. You cant ask for anything more with Surefire Web Services.

Disappointing Designs

Fred Showker catches a line from a Pete Seeger classic Where have all the flowers gone? His flowers are the web designers that he thinks are going extinct. He laments on the seeming decay in the art of web designing and says gone are the designers who made a difference in the making of web designs and who provided quality sites for the people to visit.

Showker argues that he has seen a decline in the quality of web sites basing from reviews he made of several sites. From his statements I can see that he is wellversed in making analyses of web sites and is a credible source of information. Many sites came under his meticulous scrutiny and not one was spared.

Some of the sites that he revisited were dead and others that are still up failed to meet the expected standards. The changes he saw came as a shock since he did not expect many of them to go down the drain.

Riddler.com was one site that Showker said proved to be a disappointment as it took out of consideration the reading pleasure of the reader and instead took on a much commercialized look. Webshaker.com is similar as well.

Ben Jerrys ice cream was another site that was axe by Showker. Indeed I was surprise to see content in the site about the Black History month with Martin Luther King Jr.s picture in it. I have to agree with Fred on this one as I see no relevance of the content in promoting BJs ice cream. Perhaps there is an underlying purpose for that but I honestly dont see its bearing here.

Of course there are web sites that met Showkers scrutiny like Hallmark Camobell Soups and Smuckers. These sites provided a good site for browsing and had a good visual offering for the visitor.

Fred Showkers main thesis in his review is the importance of the reader as an element in the creation of web sites. The site must be tailormade for the reader for it to reap the fullest benefits. The content must be of relevance to the reader and not just provide a stiff approach to giving out information.

He further adds that a site may come up short on the design aspect but it still should follow this basic concept “The reader is the most important element in the equation.” Style gives way to message and content is STILL king.
